Ministering to Suicidal Desperation

Soul Shop™ for Congregations is a suicide intervention training designed specifically for faith communities who desire to learn how to ask the question of suicide, learn about the prevalence of suicide in the community, and get more engaged with how to be a part of the solution.

The goal of Soul Shop™ for Congregations is to equip faith communities to create a network of support for those who are impacted by suicide. This community-oriented program is designed to increase awareness of the dangers of suicide and discuss the steps that can be taken to reduce risks.

While Soul Shop for Congregations is designed specifically for faith communities, it will be a benefit to anyone exploring how we think and talk about suicide. Everyone is welcome, whether or not you are a person of faith, or part of a faith community. This training includes an introduction to the CALL model for keeping a person with thoughts of suicide safe.

Registration is required. Lunch will be provided at 11:30 AM, the training will begin at 12 PM.
